Now, in this time to mourn this wonderful man, so many of you have been asking me about my book - Clancy Brothers &amp; Tommy Makem Memories from Family &amp; Friends. I understand that you want to share your memories with others at this time and hear about others. Let me use this platform to answer all of you who have shared your stories with me.
